Shri Garry Mukhopadhyay, Dy. Govt. Advocate For Objector :

Shri Anurag Singh, Advocate Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order On Board 08/12/2017 This is the first bail application filed u/s 439 of Cr.P.C. for grant of bail to the applicant who has been arrested in connection with Crime No. 08/2017 registered at Police Station Kurushnar, District Narayanpur (CG) for the offence punishable under Sections 436, 506-B & 294 of IPC. The applicant is in jail since 23.08.2017.

2.

The allegation against the present applicant is that he is said to have gone to the house of the complainant on 09.08.2017 and set her house and courtyard on fire.

3.

Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has already remained in custody for a period of about 3 1⁄2 months and that he has also subsequently arrived at a settlement with the complainant. The applicant has given compensation for the loss caused to the complainant and the matter has been resolved between the two. Therefore, considering these facts, the applicant may be released on bail.

4.

State counsel, however, opposes the bail application drawing the attention to the nature of offence committed by the applicant. 5.

Shri Anurag Singh, counsel for the complainant/objector has stated that the dispute has been resolved amicably and the complainant has received the compensation for the loss caused. 6.

Considering the total facts and circumstances of the case, particularly the submission made by the counsel for the applicant that the matter has been resolved amicably between the parties and also taking note of the period of custody already undergone, this Court is of the opinion that it is a fit case for grant of bail to the applicant. 7.

Accordingly, the application for grant of bail is allowed. It is directed that the Applicant shall be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one surety in the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court for his appearance before the said Court as and when directed.
